I read the book Talent by Zoey Dean. This book is about a clique of girls that have big dreams to become actresses. Also, this clique of glamorous girls have perfect lives. The characters were very believable and realistic. Throughout the book, Mac, the main character, is in charge of getting Emily ready for her auditions. Emily is casted for a role of a guy, so she has to act like one. Emily is very believable because her actions are “boy like�. Additionally, she dresses like a boy, burps out loud, and wears her pants down low. Mac, is a perfect young teenage girl, with high expectations. I think it is believable that she is the leader of their “clique�. Mac demands things and expects them to be done. I loved reading about their fights and separations.
There was not a vivid place where this book took place. The author did not create a strong sense of place. The girls are all over with their weekly shopping activities and their actressing jobs. However, the book Talent was a very fast paced book that carried on with the girls lives. Overall, the book was easy to understand; however, at certain times the story line was complicated. The majority of the book grabbed my attention, but there were parts that were slow. Zoey Dean used descriptive words to describe the girls, their fights, and their outfits.
The theme of this book is to choose friends that will support you in good times as well as bad times. I agreed with the author concerning her ideas regarding friendships and relationships. This theme relates to my life as well. Overall, I liked this book and I agreed with the author's theme.
